I will readily admit that I'm a trigger snob when it comes to my pistols. On the other hand, being retired Army, I've never felt the need to replace my stock AR15 trigger. That is until I shot one with an upgraded trigger. The difference was immediately apparent. Being on a retired budget, I was trying to get the best upgrade for the money. I gambled on the CMC Single Stage Duty trigger and am so glad I did. The difference in placement on target was unreal. I know good ammo can also make a difference, but the crispness of this trigger makes it so much easier to literally connect the dots. I was free handing while zeroing my Burris RT-3 and consistently putting rounds in the same hole. One of my three round groups looked like a slightly elongated single hole. I wish I had made the conversion much sooner. I went from occasionally shooting my AR just to keep sort of current, to shooting it routinely and loving it!
Pros:
- Crisp clean break with no over travel and great reset.
Would recommend: Yes

This trigger has a smooth pull and crisp breaking point. Much better than the cheap trigger with the build.
This is going in my duty rifle, so no need for an obnoxiously low trigger pull. Trigger pull came in around 4.4 lbs on my pull scale. Excellent product.
Would recommend: Yes

This thing is a great trigger. It doesn't necessarily look pretty and it's installation was very snug, but it was fairly easy to install -- and, it's been great shooting so far. Single stage with a quick reset -- much improved trigger action over my stock trigger it replaced.
Best Used for:
- Self defense / competition
Would recommend: Yes

This is my 2nd CMC trigger and I could not be happier with both. Easy install and quality construction. Will be using these in all my builds. Crisp and clean break and reset. Closed construction so dirt and grit does not get in works.

CMC drop in triggers are not the most expensive but the best bang for the buck in trigger upgrades ( no pun intended) IMHO. First flat trigger I have ever used and it REALLY does make a difference. 4.5 lb trigger great, smooth and not too light. You will live this trigger
Best Used for:
- Tacticalnshooting, LE and recreation

Awesome trigger!! I’ve been wanting an upgrade for my 300 Blackout and this is exactly what I was lookin for. The flat trigger has a great feel! I have big hands and long fingers so the flat trigger works great for me. It has a smooth pull and a quick reset which has helped my accuracy tremendously. Installation could not have been easier! I’ve never installed a trigger before and this only took me twenty minutes. I will certainly look to buy another one for future builds.

The trigger is well designed it is solid and simple to install. The trigger pull is crisp and easy to manage, the flat trigger also gives a great feeling of control and makes the pull seem lighter than it is.
Pros:
- Crisp trigger pull
- easy to install
Would recommend: Yes

I have these triggers in almost all my AR's. For the Price they are hard to beat. Very crisp break almost no take up, you won't be disappointed. I'm sure Geissele's are great triggers but I can't justify spending that much money when this trigger does such a great job. You won't be let down by these triggers and the install is a breeze as well.
Pros:
- Price
- Functionality
- Install
Best Used for:
- hunting
- target
- competative shooting
Would recommend: Yes
